<p><b><font color="#FF3300">Important MapBlog Update Information</font></b><br />
  To make it easier for you to add locations to the MapBlog we have a new feature. <br />
  <br />
  Immediately after adding a marker to the map, the page you  associated with the marker is displayed in a separate window. The page is displayed in exactly the same way it will be displayed when your marker is clicked. This allows you to see right away if the URL you provided is valid and working. If your page does not display correctly, close the window and delete the point you just added using the &quot;Delete Last Point Added&quot; link. Then you can try again. <br />
  <br />
  <b> Remember, the URL you provide must be a complete and valid URL. You can test a URL by pasting it into the address bar of a web browser to see if it pulls up the page you want to see. </b><br />

</p>
<p>Recenter and zoom the map to the location where you will add your point. </p>
Click the map at the place where you want your new point to be added. This will display a popup window where you enter:<br />
<ul>

</li>
<li> 
The URL of the web page that will be associated with your point
</li> 
<li> 
Your MapBlog nickname. Your nickname should have been provided in your course. If you didn't get a nickname, or you can't remember what it is, enter your first name and last name with no spaces between them. (i.e. John Doe becomes johndoe)
</li> 
</ul>

<p>Click the save button to complete the process and save your point to the MapBlog.</p>
<p>You can click the cancel button to cancel the operation.</p>
